I joined this site way back when in order to to learn more about the lake and its surroundings. In my early years, I appreciated that a discussion could be had on perhaps a somewhat controversial topic, and while there may not be agreement between two (or more) involved in the discussion, in most cases the disagreement was respectful.

Unfortunately, that "agree to disagree" behavior has become far less frequent, with too much back and forth, usually in a not so respectful manner, becoming the norm rather than the exception. There are uncensored sites that allow, and perhaps encourage, that type of "lively" discussion.

My boat owner days may be over, but I love coming on this site to enjoy all the things that attracted me here in the first place.

Thank you Webmaster.
